GAP Cover For Tesla

Tesla has refined the modern motoring world by pushing the boundaries of electric vehicles. From the futuristic Model 3 to the luxurious Model S and family-ready Model Y, these cars combine cutting-edge tech with serious performance.

Your Tesla might be fast, sleek, and electric, but even Elon Musk’s company can’t design a car that outruns depreciation. As soon as you drive away, the value starts to slide. There’s no escape from it. Even that fancy autopilot will trigger depreciation.

That’s where Tesla GAP insurance steps in. It bridges the difference between what your main insurer pays and what your Tesla was worth when you bought it. Simple, clear protection from Insureworks keeps your finances future-proof.

Why choose Tesla GAP insurance with Insureworks

  • Don’t get caught out: It can be a shock to find out your Tesla’s been written off or stolen. Without GAP, the situation can really short-circuit your finances. Keep your peace of mind fully charged with Tesla GAP insurance.
  • New and used: Whether you’ve just driven your brand-new Model Y off the forecourt or picked up a second-hand Model 3 that’s already been on the road, Tesla GAP insurance has you covered.
  • Don’t lose to thieves: Teslas always catch people’s attention. Unfortunately, that’s also the case for thieves. If they do drive off with your car, don’t let them take your cash as well.
  • Straight to the point: No jargon, no faff, no waiting around to charge the battery. Just quick, clear cover from Insureworks that actually helps when you make a claim.

How Tesla GAP Insurance works

  • 1. Your Tesla is written off or stolen. It’s the scenario every driver dreads. Whether it’s an accident or theft, your car’s suddenly out of action and out of your hands.
  • 2. Your motor insurer pays the market value. Standard insurance will only cover what your Tesla is worth today, not what you paid for it. This could leave your wallet feeling like a drained battery.
  • 3. Tesla GAP coverage tops this up to the agreed level, so your wallet doesn’t suffer the same shock as a battery when the charge runs low.
  • 4. Hit the road again! It’s quick, smooth, and stress-free with Insureworks. Get back behind the wheel without the financial sting adding to your troubles.
